How to open RPMSG file?
The main problem with Outlook Restricted Permission Message is that the RPMSG file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that RPMSG files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the RPMSG file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install Microsoft Outlook
The first step is to check if the computer has the Microsoft Outlook program installed. To do this, enter the name Microsoft Outlook into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file RPMSG with Microsoft Outlook.

Programs to open RPMSG file
Remember to download programs supporting RPMSG files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Outlook with RPMSG files
If, despite the installed application, the RPMSG file does not start in the Microsoft Outlook application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the RPMSG file with the Microsoft Outlook application.
Step 3. Update Microsoft Outlook to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Microsoft Outlook program with the Outlook Restricted Permission Message file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Microsoft Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RPMSG file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to RPMSG files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the RPMSG file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected RPMSG files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the RPMSG files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged RPMSG files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Microsoft, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RPMSG files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the RPMSG file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the RPMSG file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
